MGR never used the code JVZ. JUZ maybe but that is the colour code for Midnight Blue surfacer for JQW

Hold on boys, that site of which you speak has nothing to do with me, nor the Owners Club.

We were given the build records to enable individual members of the club to look up their car's birth date and spec. You can obtain this from PM'ing me your VIN number

I agree with xpart over the three letter codes, PineBob, PM me your VIN and I'll look up what we have down for it in our records in the club.

Are VIN numbers something every car has? Or just English cars (yes, I realise that I sound like a uber-n00b right now

).
I would like to know what information you can find on my car.

All of them have VIN numbers. (Vehicle Identification Numbers)
You can locate yours by looking here.

Yes, all cars have Vin numbers.

You will find it on the metal plate fixed to the B post by the sill inside the door area. The number starts with SAAR--------, it also has your trim and paint code on it.
